I am 2 weeks post op today and ever since I got my sleeve I have been insanely thirsty. I drink water all day. I wake up in the middle of the night multiple times dying of thirst. Sometimes I drink so fast that I get sick. Has anyone else experienced this?

I'm 2 weeks tomorrow and I feel that way at times like your mouth is so dry. Are u only drinking water. I drink lots of smar****er it helps. The crystal lights are yummy but makes my mouth dry.

Well I'm glad to know I'm not the only one! I really don't drink anything bu****er. I tried crystal light a few times but like you said it just made my mouth really dry....

I experienced the same thing.  One reason I believe is we cannot hold as much water or anything else for that matter and your body still remembers.  Not only that, it's healthy.  After my owls my Dr said it was right up there with your protein.  No worries your new tummy will adjust.

Well that makes sense. Speaking of protein, I have been really bad about getting my 60 grams per day. I'll be complete honest...I haven't had a shake since Sunday :( I just can't get them down!

Try Camomile tea.  Since I came home I've been drinking it 3 times per day and it has really helped.  It soothes my mouth, throat and best of all my new tummy!  It can't hurt to try ... might help.
